What kind of wheelset do you have on?

What is a fairly priced wheelset that won't bust your wallet and is isn't the purefix edginess with a single different color spoke this is (Fixie, Fixies, Fixie Bikes | Pure White Deep Dish Wheelset | AeroFix Cycles LA Fixed)

I have some Sugino cranks and a Soma cog that I'm dying to test out, but would like to find an appropriate wheelset.

Thanks for your input.

Sweet, I tried lacing a rear wheel once but the old alloy rim would warp. Maybe that's the way to go, lacing your own set

Winter/spring wheels:

Kore ff rear
Cheap sealed disc brake front
Velocity Halo V
Dbl butted stainless

Summer/autumn wheels:

Formulas
Velo Orange PHPs
Dbl butted stainless

The Wabi wheelset seems pretty great for the money. Velomine has some nice formula/cr18 wheelsets for a steal, they likely have deep v sets too, but I wouldn't recommend them- but only cause I hate deep v's any time that there's neither snow nor racing.

basically formula hubs to almost anything is gonna be a great street wheelset. Deep V's are cool and colorful, h+son are great and trendy, Mavic are cool and old school? I've ridden rims from all 3 and liked them. Either drop some dough and get Phil Wood or Paul hubs and never buy another set again or just go to velomine and get formula hubs laced to whatever rims you are feeling for looks/price-point and you shouldn't have any problems for casual street riding.

you could scan these and other forums forever and that is the basic answer you are going to get

Thanks for the replies, I've been looking at velomine for a bit and maybe a nice set will go on sale that I can grab.

And the Wabi's do seem very reasonable, though they've gone up in price a little from the reviews I've read on them that are a few years old. Makes sense though

Three and a half years on the Miche Express wheelset on my Hillbrick, carrying big ol' me and usually a pannier of stuff on the back. Nary a problem.

Of course, I've also got a set of handmade wheels with Novatech hubs and no-name Chinese rims with 18g spokes and they've done at least as much work, if not more when the Europa was playing fixed gear. Again, no problems.

The issue isn't so much the bits that go into the wheel but how it's made. You can either buy good bits and get a good wheel maker to make them for you, or buy a complete wheelset and get a good wheel maker to retension them properly for you. In either case, it's that last step that makes the difference. Just buying a machine built wheelset and riding it usually results in issues at some level.

And the cost of retensioning? Depends on what your lbs charges for under an hour's work. Buy your tyres and tubes at the same time and they might even do it for nix.

I have a whole bunch of wheelsets but the set that gets the most use are my:
philwood high flange <-> velocity deep v's (deep v's are still cool)

As already mentioned, the best bang for the buck is a decent name brand rims laced to formula hubs (that's a generic term considering there's other brands that rebrand their stuff as their own for ex. origin 8 sells them)

If I can get my hands on a set of Campy or Phil's or Dura Ace hubs for a reasonable price (which I think I can) a nice rim, and a set of good spokes (https://jbbicyclewheels.com/spokes-ni...product_id=183) like these .... what is the proper spoke length needed for me to order them? If anyone has experimented with this
